What happens here

With the water heater circuit breaker identified, proceed to reset it. A tripped breaker will often be in an 'OFF' or 'middle' position. To reset it, firmly push the breaker handle all the way to the 'OFF' position first, and then push it all the way to the 'ON' position. Listen for a click, indicating it has engaged. Observe if the breaker holds or trips again immediately.

Goal: Restore power to the water heater by resetting its dedicated circuit breaker.

What they say

Hide

that their water heater wasn't working and that the circuit breaker keeps tripping so we on the way to about to check it out at a commercial office building so here is the building's electrical panel first thing I did was open the panel find the water heater breaker and try to flip it on I then put my clamp meter on to measure amperage and was drawing around 1.8 amps so then I went inside the building to the water heater and check the power so the water heater seemed to be working fine and I called the customer to let him know if
